Gardai in Wexford have arrested four people this morning in connection with investigations into false imprisonment, blackmail and criminal damage that occurred near Gorey between January 25th and Febuary 3rd of this year.
Two men aged 25 and 33, and two women, aged 31 and 48, were arrested this morning in Gorey and Enniscorty in relation to the alleged incident.
